Kendrick Lamar wore a chain featuring a lower case "a" during his Super Bowl Halftime Show performance on Sunday night and the move is sparking tons of debate on social media. Some users on X (formerly Twitter) have been suggesting the jewelry is a reference to his "Not Like Us" lyric about "a minor" while others have noted it's the same logo as his pgLang brand.
"Teasing Not Like Us, then doing it while wearing an a minor chain, then posting “Game Over” with lights in the crowd. Drake might as well stay in Australia," one user wrote. Another added: "Drake did everything he could to stop this song being played at the SB only for Kendrick to show up in a lower case a chain and have Serena Williams dance on his grave." Others suggested it was the logo for pgLang and nothing more. "This how I know yall don’t know anything. That’s literally one of the logos for pglang," one user said. Others argued it could've been a play on both.
Did Kendrick Lamar Diss Drake At The Super Bowl?
Even if his "a" chain wasn't aimed at Drake, Lamar did take several shots at him throughout the performance. While performing "Not Like Us," he brought out Drake's ex, Serena Williams to dance on stage. Lamar also joked about Drake taking legal action against Universal Music Group over the song.
Prior to kickoff, Drake's legal team put out a new statement addressing UMG. They wrote: “UMG is masquerading as a champion of artistic freedom by calling its actions merely ‘entertainment,’ but there is nothing entertaining about pedophilia or child abuse in the real world,” Drake’s legal team stated. “We are confident that the evidence we will ultimately present at trial—including information we’ve already learned and continue to receive since filing the lawsuit—will expose UMG’s gross prioritization of its own corporate profits and executive bonuses over its exclusively signed artists’ well-being and the truth.”
